General Information

Welcome to OAKHURST LEARNING CENTER! A child care facility that opened its doors in
this community in 1974. We hope your family will open our center door many times and take
an active interest in your child's activities.

Schools of quality exist when parents/caregivers and teachers are partners, working together.
Your child comes to our center with a distinct personality; and it is our aim to preserve his/her
individuality while introducing them to the joy of learning and playing with others.

Our center provides services for young children from the ages of one through five years, and school-age children before and after school from the ages of five to eleven (K-5). The Center will provide a caring, safe, secure, and stimulating environment that provides a developmentally centered curriculum.

Our Goals

To provide a safe, consistent and enriched environment where developmentally appropriate
activities encourage exploration and “hands on” learning experiences.
To enhance the sense of dignity and self-worth within the child and his/her family.
To encourage spontaneity, curiosity and self-discipline.
To enhance the child’s mental processes by building confidence and self-esteem.
To enhance patterns and expectations of success for the individual child.
To learn to manage feelings.
To continue growth in language and mathematical skills.
To develop the ability to organize, plan and to follow through on simple tasks.
To learn to enjoy a variety of nutritious foods through a quality lunch/snack program and
cooking experiences.
To introduce children to the natural world and how to preserve it.
To provide consistently high-quality care by continuously evaluating Center operations.
To maintain the lowest possible child to staff ratios.
To constantly encourage family involvement.
